30 Arduino Projects for the Evil Genius Author:Simon Monk Program and build fun devices with the Arduino microcontroller development system30 Arduino Projects for the Evil Genius shows you how to use Arduino?the open-source physical computing platform. You?ll master Arduino through a series of projects while learning the required simplified C programming--no prior programming experien... more »ce necessary. Projects include: a servo-controlled laser, a USB-controlled fan, a light harp, a USB temperature logger, a sound ?oscilloscope,? and many more. Arduino?s built-in USB makes it perfect for interfacing a home computer to external electronics, and it can be used with Windows, Mac, and Linux. The boards can be assembled by hand or purchased preassembled; the open-source IDE can be downloaded for free. 30 Arduino Projects for the Evil Genius
